RESUMEN
Las LTP (lipid transfer proteins) son una familia de proteínas presentes en diferentes alimentos. La sintomatología de la alergia a las LTP es muy variable, desde clínica leve hasta sistémica, en ocasiones, presentando síntomas únicamente en presencia de cofactores. Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 11 años que acude a urgencias con clínica de anafilaxia tras ingesta previa de fruta mientras realizaba ejercicio físico, destacando la importancia de la historia clínica y la sospecha diagnóstica en el enfoque de esta entidad (AU)
